All right, so welcome to the show. Today we are joined by Amber, Jamie and Sydney. Again,

with my lovely co-host here Dustin. Thank you all so much for being here today.

Hi, thank you. Thank you for having us.

So I would love for us to kind of start off. We're all kind of from different seasons.

Some of you are from similar seasons.

I would love for you all to just kind of intro yourselves with like what season people would recognize you from and what your family background is and maybe just kind of talk a little bit about how you identify as a mixed race person.

So whoever wants to go first.

I can go first. Okay, so my name is Amber. I was on crystal season.

Ben Higgins season and bachelor and period. I don't know the second one. That was ever on. So I don't know.

I come from a mixed background. My mom is my wife. She is partially Scottish and Italian and French and all mixed your white. And then my dad is I'm not very close to my dad. So don't really know all of his background. Obviously that for American side.

And I guess I identify myself as I don't want to say more white, but I grew up in my white side of my family. So I definitely have learned a lot in the last month that I probably have my entire life.

So this is kind of new for me, but I love it. And I'm here for it. Yeah, we're all.

We're all figured it out. And as part of the conversation with mixed in America.

Jasmine and Megan, they both just kind of shared about how we are all figuring it out. Like the mixed race story is, you know, one that there's not a lot of research on one that not a lot of people talk about one that we don't really have a strong community.

And so some of the things we talk about today might feel a little hard and might be a little uncomfortable, but that's totally okay. It's part of the process. And this is a safe space for us to try to figure these things out and process them together. So thank you for sharing Amber.

It's complex. It's complex. So yeah. Thank you, Amber.

You're welcome.

Next. We're going to the line. Jamie. Jamie, you want to next?

All jumping. Hi, I'm Jamie. I was on season 20. So Ben Higgins season of the bachelor. And then I did bachelor in paradise three after that.

My parents are my dad is light. He's French Canadian. He has a little bit of matey in him. So whenever people see my parents, they're like, no, they're both mixed because my dad can get pretty tan. And I'm like, pretty sure I know what my parents are.

Thanks for telling me what I am.

Yeah.
